SIBI-P1 H2005-03

Behold them!

Morphological NotesDemonstrative/attention particle (HTm) הִנָּה/הֵן with 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix (-ם), yielding "behold them." Functions as an interjection drawing attention to a masculine plural referent.
Rendering RationaleThe particle הֵן/הִנֵּה draws pointed attention—"look!" or "behold!"—and the attached 3rd person masculine plural suffix (-ם) specifies the object as "them." "Behold them!" preserves both the demonstrative force of the particle and the masculine plural pronominal reference required by the morphology (Sp3mp).
